  1. Persist time selection across category

    When a user clicks between Computer Usage, Applications or Documents the time (item row they selected) is reset to the start of the day. (aka the start of the list) In my opinion it should start at the same selected (if there is a time in that category) OR the closest available. Sometimes I click between the few to get an idea of what I was doing that day to get a full picture.

  2. Manual overwrite

    Allow a designated tag to overwrite another tag. Suppose you've tagged Task A from 10:00 to 10:15. Then you look and you see that you took a phone call - Task B - from 10:05 to 10:10. If you just tag Task B from 10:05 to 10:10, you'll have that portion double-tagged. But I'd like to manually overwrite so that Task A is broken into two segments (10:00 to 10:05 and 10:10 to 10:15, totaling 10 mins) and Task B overwrites the time for 10:05 to 10:10, totaling 5 minutes.

  3. Scheduled Backups should be enabled by default

    ManicTime has a feature for scheduled backups, however these are not enabled by default. I started using manic time about a month ago... I just had my C drive crash and lost my whole database, if the backups had been enabled by default i would have been able to restore since my documents are synchronized

  4. Google Maps Timeline Plugin

    A "Google Maps Timeline" plugin would be very practical. So I do not only see what I have done on my laptop, I also know where I was at that time. Also when I have no other timeline (Laptop is off) I can see later that I was travelling. This gives me a better idea what I have done the whole day.

  6. Files paths for Revit Models

    I'd expect Revit would be similar to AutoCAD to program in, and would be very helpful to people in the building design industry.

  7. Configurable "Edit" Tag Entry dialog (notes, start, end)

    Configurable "Edit" Tag Entry dialog (notes, start, end)

    When editing tagged time to modify the notes or adjust start/end times...

    A) The ability to configure and pin the items appearing on the right.
    Configure: For example, add a custom option for, say, "1 hour" to modify the active field (start, end, duration) by the 1 hour. Start time is active: resets end time to 1 hour later. End time active: resets start time 1 hour earlier.

    Pin: when "Tags" text box is selected, I could "pin" various MRU tags instead of them floating down the list based on last used.

  8. Record screen video when an application runs

    Create video recordings for certain applications. For me, I want to record all of my Skype calls automatically (audio and video). Currently I do this manually with SnagIt, but sometimes i forget.

  9. Ignore part of the header of an application

    Some applications (Adobe apps in particular) change their headers in response to the zoom level of the active document (ex. Indesign can have a header saying "New document 1.indd @ 100%" and "New document 1.indd @ 50%" etc for the same document).
    Navigating a document while zooming in and out generates a LOT of entries in the Application view that could have been one single entry.

    It would be nice to be able to tell ManicTime to ignore certain parts of a header to produce less header spam.
    Something as simple (though clunky) as "Ignore [@ 50%, @ 100%, @…

  10. Cell phone app to capture cell phone usage as activity

    I depend heavily on ManicTime for capturing billable time but for phone calls I often end up missing some billable hours.

    I'm very fond of both products/companies so integration between ManicTime and a mobile operator like Ting might be a nice marketing boost to both companies. Further, Ting already has Android and IPhone apps you could piggy-back on. I've sent this suggestion to them as well with a pointer to ManicTime web site.

    Such an app could be as simple as a prompt for the call's purpose after calls. A phone number catch/ignore list would minimize annoyance factor. Input via…

  11. Split

    Split Function for Tag
    During the day I sometimes forget to stop a timer when an interruption comes. Rather than having to then re-adjust the time manually by dragging the task creating a new task and adding the new tag it would be nice if I could put a split in a tag which then seperates that tag into two seperate tags. From there I can just drag the second tag start time to where I got back to my original task and add the new Tag for the interruption.

    Screenshots are the same for all device timelines, you can find them in the screenshots folder (path is defined in Settings - Screenshots - Save to). You can also export activities for different timelines for additional data.

  15. Allow user to permanently preserve screenshots in certain time frames

    The proposed feature could be like:
    Select a time frame, Right Click, choose "Preserve screenshots".
    And the screenshots within this time frame will not be automatically deleted.

    The reason I want this feature is because screenshots may provider more help other than logging times. Take the motive of this PR as an example. I had a research on one problem in our system recently and had some progress. However, the clues are still not enough to solve the problem, and the chance this problem occurs would be very rare so other works take advance of it, which may last several…

  17. Android Work Profile (Employee Privacy enhancement)

    Setting this as ManicTime Server as there is no "ManicTime Android" listed.

    Its great that ManicTime is available on Android .. but one of the big problems is that Android is filled with limitations that prevent ManicTIme from doing more.

    I think the easiest solution that would work would be if ManicTime operated only within a selected Profile (e.g. Personal or Work) ..

    On GSuite you can use the MDM to allow company devices to have a Work Profile and a Personal Profile. Work Profile then has a series of restrictions, forced installs, etc.

    I would like to track the…

  19. Scroll through screenshots

    As far as I can tell, you can only show screenshots either by hovering over the timeline or hovering over the left panel. I'd like to be able to highlight an item on the left panel and have the screenshot appear, and then, if you scroll down using arrow keys, the screenshot of the highlighted row shows.

  20. Removal of Jira support on free version

    I understand that you decide which features are supported in the free version, but I do not think it is fair to remove a feature that was working fine (integration with Jira) when I do a software update, without any warning.
    What is the last version that supports this feature on how can I downgrade ?
